Top 5 packing lists for Thailand – What you need with you before jetting off to Thailand

Keep in mind that packing for a holiday and for that matter, an outing to Thailand involves careful planning as well. Thus, read on below for 5 of the top items that you need to include.

1

Travel insurance

Perhaps, not the most inspiring item that you will ever be pictured carrying with you during your time in Thailand but certainly the most important would be travel insurance. By and large, Thailand is a safe country to be in but you can never be too sure and this is why sudden health emergencies or petty crimes can be easily taken care of in the event you have adequate travel insurance. For example, opting for a provider such as World Nomads would soon have you at ease no sooner you're in the air and en route to one of the most sought-after nations in South East Asia.

2

Universal power adapter

In general, South East Asian countries have a reputation of being subjected to sudden power surges which for a traveller like yourself can mean having to undergo unnecessary hassles. To guard against such situations from putting a damper on your schedule, always have a good supply of fuses to go with the safety and assurance of a universal power adapter. Given the varying nature of power outlets that you will find in Thailand, it is wise to have such a device packed in.

3

Invest in a neck wallet

A good and smart means of having all your valuables such as credit cards, cash, passport, and phone in one place as you move about from one section of Thailand to the next would be to purchase a neck wallet. As a neck wallet comes complete with convenient storage, you will not have to worry too much about rummaging through a cumbersome bag to get your hands on what you want.

4

Take your underwater camera along

If you don't have your own underwater camera, then now would be the perfect time to go get yourself one as the outdoors of Thailand overflow in beauty and wonder; traits that would be best captured on cam. In particular, should you decided to explore regions such as Koh Lan which is a small island off the coast of Pattaya, and stay at a Pattaya beach resort such as the Avani Pattaya Resort; then you will be able to put your camera skills to the test. This is because the above coral island affords plenty of opportunities to engage in a spread of water sports facilities and a chance to check out just how breathtaking the ocean floor around this part of the world is. Tempted?

5

Hiking shoes

Do away with the idea of waterproof shoes as owing to the heat and humidity which prevails in Thailand, your feet will soon start to feel drenched in sweat. Plus, when on a hiking expedition, one's footwear must be chosen carefully to avoid the risk of injury as some of the trails in the country can be demanding. For such pursuits look to opting for hiking shoes that provide plenty of ventilation such as a pair of Merrells.
